Moriyama Ward

The Shonai River helps define the setting of Moriyama Ward, Nagoya’s northeastern district — its lowland corridor marks a transition from dense urban neighbourhoods towards the greener eastern side of the city. Moriyama is part of Aichi Prefecture’s metropolitan core, yet its Shidami area preserves a markedly older layer of the region. The Shidami Kofun Group contains numerous burial mounds dating from Japan’s Kofun period, while the Shidami Kofun Museum introduces the archaeology and rituals associated with these ancient tombs. Rail connections place central Nagoya within easy reach, making the ward a useful base for exploring the city beyond its major commercial centres.
